"Words are inert. They're just symbols. They're dead, you know? And so much of our experience is intangible. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It's unspeakable. And yet when we communicate with one another and we feel that we've connected, and we think that we're understood, I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. And that feeling might be transient, but I think it's what we live for."

2-3. Has a striking aesthetic, and tangles with some really powerful ideas. But it mostly really is freeform pretension, albeit cohesive pretension about thought-provoking ideas. But most of them don't really have a flesh about them; it's more a pastiche of anecdotes, lectures, and quotes than a series of actions that lend proper power to these ideas.

I've seen many films employ dream logic in their structures and narratives, but I've rarely found a film to nail the feeling of a dream as well as this one does. The conversations can be hard to follow but overall the messages get across I think. It is always nice to see a movie dive headlong into ideas the way this one does, and the animation helps to keep it all interesting.
